Answer:

m = $\frac{y-b}{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = mx + b ( subtract b from both sides )

y - b = mx ( divide both sides by x )

$\frac{y-b}{x}$ = m

What is the distance of this line?<br><br>Which is the right answer?

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the distance formula derived from the Pythagorean theorem

D = $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 +(y_2-y_1)^2}$

the two points given are

(0, 3) and (-2, -3)

$(x_2-x_1) = (0-(-2)) = 2\\(y_2-y_1) = (3-(-3)) = 6\\D = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (6)^2} \\D = \sqrt{4 + 36} \\D = \sqrt{40} = 6.324$

What is a radius of a circle given by the equation x²-2x+8y-47=0

Zolol [24]

First, we are going to rewrite it as a parabola equation.
Rewrite.
$8y=-x^2+2x+47$
Divide by 8.
$y=-\frac{x^2}{8}+\frac{x}{4}+\frac{47}{8}$
Factor out coefficient.
$y=-\frac{1}{8}\left(x^2-2x\right)+\frac{47}{8}$
Then, we are going to convert x into square form.
$y=-\frac{1}{8}\left(x^2-2x+1\right)+\frac{1}{8}\cdot \:1+\frac{47}{8}$
Convert the whole expression into square form.
$y=-\frac{1}{8}\left(x-1\right)^2+\frac{1}{8}\cdot \:1+\frac{47}{8}$
Simplify.
$y=-\frac{1}{8}\left(x-1\right)^2+6$
Subtract 6 from both sides.
$y-6=-\frac{1}{8}\left(x-1\right)^2$
Divide by coefficient.
$-8\left(y-6\right)=\left(x-1\right)^2$
Rewrite in standard form.
$4\left(-2\right)\left(y-6\right)=\left(x-1\right)^2$

The radius of the circle will be -2. Also, no matter what the sign says, the radius has to always be positive.
Have a nice day! :)
